Introduction

Microsoft 365 Teams API allows the users to create, read and edit Microsoft teams & channels within Teams with the right access set to their Microsoft 365 accounts. The Goal of this connector is to integrate Tulip with M365 using Microsoft’s Graph API(v1.0) using HTTP Connectors & provide our customers with an out-of-box connector that can be imported into their instance.

Purpose

We are going to highlight different connector functions that can be built by doing HTTP calls to Microsoft’s Graph API(v1.0) to interact with the M365 Teams to showcase various read and write actions on the teams that could be leveraged for various use cases.
